Day 5 of Twelve Days of Great Reads


I can hear the song in the background: "On the fifth day of Great Reads, my story gave to me: a de-light-ful my-ster-y!"

Christine Verstraete, author of 2009 Eppie-nominated children's books offers up Christmas at the North Pole Compound. According to Verstraete, "It's not all Fa-la-la and Ho-Ho-Ho at the North Pole Compound when Santa's elves find that this year's Christmas deliveries could be held up. Someone's been tampering with the gifts, and even worse, it looks like an inside job!"

Visit Echelon Press to buy your copy and find out if Chief Elf Investigator Finius Flaherty can crack the case and save Christmas?

Happy Holiday Reading!

Some gifts are planned and worked on for months before they are given. Some are a last minute inspiration when the funds can be scraped together. But what of a gift given when it is not expected? And what could be more special than a gift given with love?

Day 3 of Twelve Days of Great Reads


Here is a real treat for young readers, and readers who are young at heart - a fresh new short story from Mary Cunningham. She's the guest at Echelon Press Shorts today and here's a glimpse of what motivates this talented author:

"Although inspiring young readers is my ultimate goal, it’s also my wish to encourage young readers and writers to explore their own family history. One of the main reasons that compelled me to write the “Cynthia’s Attic Series” is my regret at not listening to stories my grandparents told about their lives and childhood experiences. If I can encourage just one child to spend time with a relative such as a grandparent, great aunt, or their mother and dad – and write about them, I will have accomplished my goal."

A wonderful thought for every season, but so very precious during the holidays. Enjoy some time with your loved ones and start a talk about about Christmas with Daisy - a great story suitable for every generation!

Happy Holiday Reading!
